About 228 COMMANDER
Like all Sea Fox models the 228 Commander is designed to exceed the needs of the most demanding Captain, as well as accommodate his family. As Fisherman and boating enthusiasts we believe it is important to provide all of the necessities for the serious fisherman, but then go further and design family-friendly amenities into each model to truly offer a distinctive and versatile vessel.
